The Miami Dolphins had just spent more than 10 minutes marching to a wildcat touchdown when Randy Moss used one stiff-arm to wipe out their lead.

Moss sped to a 71-yard touchdown after grabbing a short pass over the middle and shoving rookie cornerback Vontae Davis out of his way as the New England Patriots tightened their grip on the AFC East with a 27-17 win Sunday.

"That's like getting stabbed in the heart right there," Patriots guard Logan Mankins said. "You grind it out for like 10 minutes and finally score, and then in like a minute and a half we come right back."
